All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

120: Chapter 119 Re-entering Fengdu CityAfter the vision from the Double Pupils vanished...

Ji Xingyue’s face was slightly pale. She had clearly endured immense pressure to manifest that future scene.

”Actually, there is another scene of the future that is even more terrifying than this, but now is not the time for the General to view it.”

”Is it that you cannot, or that you dare not?”

”I dare not.”

Dare not?

Ye Xiu frowned, a trace of gravity in his gaze as he looked at Ji Xingyue. ”What does one plus one equal?”

Ji Xingyue fell silent for a long time upon hearing this question.

She finally answered, ”No less than thirty!”

Thirty!

Ye Xiu felt as if a stampede of Divine Beasts was charging through his heart.

Even if the Main World fully recovered, it likely wouldn’t be able to accommodate thirty existences of the Supreme Realm.

He looked at Ji Xingyue’s serious face.

He asked again, ”Are there any who have achieved Immortal Ascension?”

Ji Xingyue shook her head slightly. ”General, do not ask too much. Before entering the Supreme Realm, try not to mention the names of those who have achieved Immortal Ascension. Among them are existences even more terrifying than the Supreme Position.”

Immortal ascendants even more terrifying than the Supreme Position?

The gravity in Ye Xiu’s eyes grew even deeper.

After a long silence, he and Ji Xingyue exchanged a look, both sighing deeply.

”Sigh...”

This world was too terrifying.

Since the birth of heaven and earth, throughout these countless eons, too many powerhouses had been born.

Even though several world-ending wars had occurred...

Supreme experts were far too difficult to kill.

He truly wondered how many Supreme experts were still waiting for the moment of their revival.

Besides that...

The Red-Haired Monster that had just manifested in Ji Xingyue’s eyes was also incredibly terrifying; it was very likely an existence that had pursued them from the Other Shore.

That son of a bitch, the Eastern Emperor.

He must have discovered a great secret on the Other Shore.

Otherwise, the old fellow wouldn’t have rashly fused with the ominous power, turning himself into something neither human nor ghost, lying in a Blood Coffin for countless ages.

In the sky...

The two were silent for a few seconds before moving on from this heavy topic.

For now, helping Ji Xingyue achieve the Fusion of her two spirits was the primary objective.

Ye Xiu looked down at the Ghost City.

Ji Xingyue took the lead, descending toward the Ghost City.

Whoosh...

The golden Power of the Radiant Sun dispelled the darkness.

Following the path opened by the golden light, the two successfully entered the Ghost City.

Inside the Ghost City...

It was still a dim night.

The entire street was silent, without the aura of any living thing, incredibly eerie.

Clack, clack, clack...

An orderly troop of skeletons patrolled in the distance, their synchronized footsteps echoing through the quiet street for a long time.

”The remains of the Supreme Realm, becoming guards after death to eternally patrol the city they once protected.”

Ye Xiu looked at the skeleton soldiers in the city.

He sighed in his heart.

When he first entered this Ghost City a hundred years ago, he had been terrified of these Supreme Realm guards.

A hundred years later...

Entering again, things were the same but the people had changed.

These Supreme skeletons before him were soldiers of the Ancient Imperial Court.

The war that broke out back then was truly tragic. The titans went to the River of Time to fight, while the Immortals and Heavenly Venerables within the Main World suppressed the rebellions across the heavens.

Beset by internal strife and external threats...

It was no wonder the immensely powerful Imperial Court met its end in the ancient era.

”Rest in peace in the earth.”

With a wave of Ye Xiu’s hand, a building beside him collapsed.

He reached out and grabbed...

Directly burying the charging skeleton guards into the ruins.

The Power of the Radiant Sun flickered slightly.

Above the ruins, a giant golden palm instantly formed. In a few strokes, it crushed the skeletons trying to break out of the earth, thoroughly obliterating them beneath the debris.

A minute later...

The ruins formed a massive tomb.

Ye Xiu pointed a finger, erecting a monument and carving the words ’Rest in Peace’ before continuing forward with Ji Xingyue.

In the dim Ghost City...

Unknown terrifying things were slowly approaching.

”General, it seems something has been attracted.”

Ji Xingyue’s Double Pupils flickered as she looked deep into the street, where a soldier clad in ancient armor and covered in Death Qi was slowly walking toward them.

”It’s fine. They are all respectable soldiers; let them rest in peace in the earth.”

Ye Xiu’s face was expressionless.

Watching the armored soldier slowly approach, he followed the same method and buried it on the spot.

There was no resistance.

The guards and generals in the Ghost City were merely at the Supreme and Heavenly Venerable Realms; in Ye Xiu’s hands, they didn’t even have a chance to fight back before being directly obliterated.

As the two advanced...

The defensive forces in the Ghost City rapidly diminished, and burial mounds rose one after another throughout the city.

By the time they reached the gates of the City Lord’s Manor...

There were no guards left in this terrifying Ghost City; all patrolling forces had been buried under one mound after another.

”General, the passage to the underground is within the City Lord’s Manor.”

Ji Xingyue had finished exploring the Ghost City a hundred years ago. Back then, she had seen the passage in the City Lord’s Manor, but she didn’t know where it led at the time.

Coming here again...

One didn’t even need to think to know that the passage, which was full of Restrictions, definitely led to the Ancient Land of Samsara.

Ye Xiu looked at the City Lord’s Manor before him.

Those incredibly eerie things from back then were now nothing more than this in his eyes.

Dao Lords!

Though their consciousness was somewhat fragmented...

Relying on the gradually repairing Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the few Dao Lords in the City Lord’s Manor were also slowly regaining a trace of reason.

”Lead the way.”

As he spoke...

The two entered the manor and walked along the path toward its depths.

As they passed the inner hall...

Ji Xingyue showed a hint of surprise. She stopped and said, ”General, the Divine Statue here is somewhat different from the ones outside.”

Ye Xiu heard this.

He, who hadn’t been paying much attention, also turned to look at the Divine Statue in the inner hall.

It was unremarkable.

Aside from having a trace of a remnant spirit, it was no different from the Divine Statues outside.

But if that were truly the case, Ji Xingyue wouldn’t have specifically stopped. He observed carefully, but after several seconds, he still found nothing.

He couldn’t help but ask, ”What did you discover?”

”A Divine Thought!”

”A Divine Thought?”

Ye Xiu frowned slightly and probed the Divine Statue again. He still didn’t find the so-called Divine Thought; there was nothing except the fragmented true spirit in a dormant state.

”General, there’s no need to probe like that. That Divine Thought is hidden within that fragmented true spirit.”

A Divine Thought hidden within a true spirit?

Ye Xiu thought of the Blade Master.

This Fengdu City perhaps played a very critical role in the Blade Master’s revival plan.

Even Xing Mu had specifically said that as long as they entered the city, they would be safe.

This safety was clearly directed against the Ominous Malice.

After thinking for a moment...

Ye Xiu decided not to probe these Divine Statues randomly. If he accidentally sabotaged the Blade Master’s revival plan, not only would he forge a deadly enmity with the Imperial Court, but it would also trouble his conscience.

After all, he could be considered half a Disciple of the Blade Master.

Shaking his head slightly...

The two continued deeper into the City Lord’s Manor.

Within the dim City Lord’s Manor, no abnormalities appeared.

As they went deeper, a passage covered in ominous qi soon came into their view.

This passage was located in a very spacious courtyard, surrounded by many powerful Restrictions that seemed to have been added by someone later.

They were only at the Immortal level of strength.

”General, please be careful.”

After Ji Xingyue gave the warning, she began to break the Restrictions.

As her Double Pupils flickered...

The Restrictions covering the passage dissolved one by one.

Grey ominous qi surged out from the passage, carrying a very strong assimilating property.
